    Vampire Penguin Breath and Cinnamon Crunch
    Uyen P.

    Omg... delicious and the texture is so satisfying! Glad we have a dessert place like this nearby now. Tons of flavors to choose from, lots of seating, kid friendly place. Staff were also very nice! You won't regret trying it out.

    A great experience. A small shop from the outside with an odd name, but as soon as you walk in... WOW! Service was great. We were looking at the menu and the staff member persevered in asking if this was our first time. He then explained how things work. We sat down and decided on our flavors. There was a kids option which came in cute turtle bowls. They also gave us tokens for the kids to get a free toy from an old fashion prize machine. They delivered the light and airy shaved ice with great toppings. The staff member cleaned up. Wonderful experience overall and I look forward to coming back!

    This place is AMAZING!!!! It's where ice cream meets snow!! They have so many options to choose from and you can even make your own! The establishment is super cool with a beach/environmental theme which is awesome!!! We were greeted with friendly hospitality and everyone was super nice! They also have these cute 3D printed animales that you can get with their coins it's so amazing!! We could make this place a regular family ice cream run.

    Vampire Penguin breath. Like mint chocolate chip but not

    Yum. What a fun and delicious place to visit! Great service, great atmosphere! The place is decorated wonderfully, and the dining area is spacious and clean! Local business, good people, great product.

    Unreal! So good!

    Unreal! Was not expecting this type of " snow " was nice and fluffy but dense at the same time odd but it works! Lot of different types of flavors to choose from so I'll be back to review others. Today was peanut butter and jelly with crumbles!

    Super unique treat while in the area. Highly recommend stopping! Cute decor, clean and super friendly staff that provided excellent service.

    Absolutely delish authentic ramen! Came here after a day of…read moreshopping at the adjacent Ellenton Premium Outlet Mall & what a great idea that turned out to be. I had the Miso Ramen & my cousin had the Tonkatsu Ramen& both were delicious. Definitely recommend this restaurant!

    It's in that strip mall on Factory Shops Blvd. I've known about it for some time, but never got the…read morechance to try it. This was the perfect time to do so on a cold day after shopping. I love the ramen bar atmosphere! The look & vibe is so cool. There's a long ramen bar for single diners as well as table seating. The bar is decorated with GK models of anime action figures. There are action cartoons on the TV as you're eating. It's such a fun environment. Nick greeted me as I entered. He gave me a great description of the Choya Umeshu soda. They have it in yuzu and plum wine flavors. I love that it was sweet and tart. It was a great choice. I couldn't decide between the Tori Paitan, Tantanmen, or Duck Ramen. There was even a Lobster Udon & Seafood Ramen. There were so many choices, and they all looked so good on the menu. I ended up ordering the Tonkotsu Ramen. I really liked the flavor of the broth, and the shredded nori topping. It's like having a bit of seaweed in every bite. The chashu was surprisingly tender, and plentiful. Although there wasn't much of a char on the pork belly. Maybe because the slices were so big. It was really good even without the char. I loved that it had a ginger topping. It brought all the flavors out. It was a very generous serving. Did you see the size of the bowl? The egg was the only thing that I'd change. It was good, but I prefer a seasoned or marinated one. I usually order an additional seasoned egg if I see it on the menu. Not this time. With that said, it was still a very tasty bowl of ramen. There is no doubt in my mind that I'll return for more. There are so many tasty options. I really wanted to try their steam buns. They even have a tofu and sweet potato one for vegetarians. The rice bowls and appetizers look great as well. Next time I will try something different. The service was great! I didn't have to wait too long, and the ramen arrived hot & delicious. I totally recommend stopping here on your way in or out of the outlet mall.
